Federal prosecutors alleged the Anands hired a physician and had him prescribe the amphetamine-based prescription drugs phendimetrazine and phentermine to patients at their clinics without reviewing their medical histories, performing physicals or follow-up care.

They also allege the Anands systematically deposited money from the clinics in checks just below the $10,000 threshold that triggers banking monitors, and didn’t report all the income from the clinics, cheating the IRS out of $750,000 from 2005 to 2008.

The government is seeking forfeiture of $6.3 million from the couple as proceeds of the enterprise, including $700,000 in cash seized from the couple’s home in Tinley Park in a May 2010 raid and $3.6 million in bank and brokerage accounts that have been frozen.
